(a)
Interpretation:
The step (of steps 1 through 4) and turn (second or third) of the β-oxidation pathway in which the following compound is encountered as a reactant if the degraded fatty acid is decanoic acid has to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The β-oxidation pathway is defined as a repetitive series of four biochemical reactions in which acyl CoA is degraded to acetyl CoA by the removal of two carbon atoms at a time. NADH and FADH2 are also produced in this pathway.
The functional group change in the β-oxidation pathway is as follows:
Here, R and R’ represent an alkyl group. In

Interpretation:
The step (of steps 1 through 4) and turn (second or third) of the β-oxidation pathway in which the following compound is encountered as a reactant if the degraded fatty acid is decanoic acid has to be determined.

The functional group change in the β-oxidation pathway is as follows:
Functional groups are defined as the group of atoms which are attached to the carbon backbone of organic compounds. These are generally heteroatoms which are attached to the parent hydrocarbon chain. Some examples of functional groups are as follows:
Here, R and R’ represent an alkyl group. In alkene, R1, R2, R3, and R4 can be the same or different or can be hydrogen.
Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons that contain covalently bonded hydrogen and carbon atoms. In secondary alcohol, the carbon atom of the hydroxyl group

What is the mole fraction composition of the mixture?arrow_forwardOne liter of N2(g) at 2.1 bar and two liters of Ar(g) at 3.4 bar are mixed in a 4.0 liter flask to form an ideal gas mixture. Calculate the value of the final pressure of the mixture if the initial and final temperature of the gases are the same. Repeat this calculation if the initial temperature of the N2(g) and Ar(g) are 304 K and 402 K, respectively, and the final temperature of the mixture is 377 K.arrow_forward10 5 4.
